title: [Perifusion study of the secretion of calcitonin in the young rat: effect of isoproterenol and theophylline].
abstract: A perifusion system was used to study the calcitonin secretion during development in the Rat. In this preliminary report, we have shown that calcitonin secretion increased in response to isoproterenol and theophylline in 14-day-old suckling baby Rats. This method provides a sensitive in vitro system for studying factors which may affect calcitonin release during the perinatal period in the Rat.
